November 23, 2022 Opinion or Order MINUTE ORDER: The #7 Consent Motion to Transfer Case and Consent Motion for Extension of Time to File Answer is hereby GRANTED. A court may transfer a case to another district "where it might have been brought" "[f]or the convenience of parties and witnesses, in the interest of justice." 28 U.S.C. 1404(a). Moreover, a transfer motion is proper to any district in "which all parties have consented." 1404(a); see also Choi v. Matal, 266 F. Supp. 3d 150, 151 (D.D.C. 2017). It is undisputed that venue is proper in the District of New Jersey because Plaintiffs reside there, and the immigration applications at issue are pending there. The court concludes that convenience and the interests of justice support the transfer. Further, both parties consent to transfer. It is therefore ORDERED that the Clerk of the court shall transfer this action to the District of New Jersey. It is further ORDERED that Defendants' time to respond to the complaint is extended through, and including, 21 days after this action is docketed in the transferee district. Signed by Judge Tanya S. Chutkan on 11/23/2022. (lcja)
